Nice thanks for the link!

I understand the problems with people avoiding matches etc, it was always a problem in the past. Administration of it could also be time consuming. But I know a lot of people would love to see it created! So share your ideas guys, keeping in mind minimal admin and a fair system. Here's some for starters: -How about a league as used in football/soccer? Instead of it being once a year like football, perhaps monthly to keep it fresh with new signups? -I saw cases ladder was attempted again, but only 6 or so people signed up. If it was advertised more in the lobby, perhaps more would join; I only stumbled upon it by chance. Who organised this? -Regular tournaments, with rankings based on performance. Entry fees could be used to make a prize kitty, with the tournament organiser taking a cut for his time and effort. -Was it in Cases ladder there were "bux" to spend on tournies? -How about similar style games with ladders, how do they get around the problems? -If it's a lot of extra work to implement the forced fixtures idea, could any of this be outsourced cheaply on a platform like upwork.com? What kind of work is involved? I think any of the above (and especially if money/tokens are involved) would attract and retain new players. That's all that comes to mind right now, but between us all surely we can find a solution?

For a man of your knowledge about the game, Nyerguds, I can see how it would be a simple thing to pick up from the manual. But it's been donkeys years since I read it and so genuinely thought it was a glitch!

Yo guys, I did some .ini file research on tanks, but the numbers don't clearly show which tank does the most damage over time. Is it a simple maths calculation, or does the rate of fire follow a non-linear scale? ; light tank Damage=25 ROF=40 Range=4 ; medium tank Damage=30 ROF=50 Range=4.75 ; heavy tank Damage=30 (x2) ROF=70 Range=4.75

Great thanks Allen!

Well I don't know if anyone had a word with him, but he's changed his name thanks. But recently 2 more have attempted to be fake BAT's, it's as though this thread has made things worse! lol

Bump Something like the chess sytem? Or even regular tournaments for rankings would be cool...

oh cool I forgot about that! Thanks for the info

Enjoy your break! I never considered you one of the toxic one's bro. If your getting heated, try meditation to detach yourself from the result

I was playing rasta today and laid down mines where the ore trucks were going. I laid them on the ore, they exploded but zero damage was done to the trucks! Is this a glitch?

I remember playing on Westwood before Cases...

I've worked with New Zealanders, and cunt is their word of choice. Much like the small British island of Alderney, where cunt means mate. That said, I'm not advocating the use of cunt when the majority of the world prefer alternative terms. I'm passing the time at work replying to amusing forum posts.

I'm also needing this...

Yo guys, I'm making a comp stomp map in red alert 1 and want the AI to automatically use engineers if needed. I've tried various triggers but no luck so far. How to either add engineers to the map as infantry or call a reinforcement team of engineers and set them so that if a building reaches less than 50% (or even is just attacked at all), they repair the building? Cheers!

I suppose you could switch around every single unit?

Hey thanks Nyerguds! It's a nice trip down memory lane. I found robskate so far, but shame it doesn't go back further than 1999.

To Funky and admin, There's a certain player going by the name of "UNDEFEATED" who plays using the BAT clan tag. He's abusive to other players, and I get complaints from other clans. Let it be known, he is not in BAT (confirmed with our boss). Is there a way to stop this? It's hurting our peaceful reputation. Thanks!

Agreed!

Yo guys, I've tried using archive.org to find the old westwood rankings for red alert 1, but can only find tiberian sun: http://web.archive.org/web/20001018094553/http://games2.westwood.com/tsun_ladder/ranking.html Can anyone help? I can't remember my old username, and it would be cool to see the old ladder and if anyone there is still playing... Cheers!

Hey guys, UFF-Santiag beat the GMC, screenshot attached. Good job bro! NDiaz

Hey guys, This is a shout out to all who helped me get the medal. The community is full of friendly helpful players, and literally every player I asked had the time to spectate my challenge and give advice. First and foremost to Oldrog for his patience with my many fails! Also Conquer who luckily watched me pass a lot sooner, but also had a lot of patience. And Hvrats for giving me lots of practice with a spectator. It's surprisingly more difficult with someone watching! Thanks also to the following players for advice and spectating: Claus Whip Fury Kronic Beast Bravo And finally, thanks to all those who have uploaded GMC videos to youtube! Cheers NDiaz
